Thanks for giving some pointers. Coming from a senior employee that does mean something to us. Multiple departments read these pages, so your feedback can be taken into account. It’s nice to hear that you have been surrounded by great people all this time though.

Pros

Some managers will treat you like a small work family, the pay is great , great work life balance, and zero micro managing.

Cons

Lazy co-workers will make you work more than your fair share. Laid back disciplinary policy to account for co-workers not doing their job.

Thanks for your comments in regards to your time at our customer service team in Alpharetta. It's definitely great to hear that you've felt part of a family during this time. Concerning your feedback we do hope you've notified the management team, as it doesn't sound right that workload isn't shared properly. The best of luck in your career from here on out!
